Little Things Matter To God
By David J. Stewart | November 2014
Deuteronomy 22:6-7, “If a bird's nest chance to be before thee in
the way in any tree, or on the ground, whether they be young ones,
or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young, or upon the eggs, thou shalt
not take the dam with the young: But thou shalt in any wise let the
dam go, and take the young to thee; that it may be well with thee,
and that thou mayest prolong thy days.”
The above Scripture passage is absolutely fascinating.
It compels me to rejoice in tears when I realize how much God cares about
little things, knowing that the Lord pays attention to even the smallest
details of my life. Matthew 10:29-31, “Are not two sparrows sold for a
farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye
are of more value than many sparrows.” Isn't that beautiful?
Our text Scripture passage teaches that God even cares about
little birds. There is some debate over the meaning of Deuteronomy 22:6-7,
but I think the surrounding Scriptures shed light on the meaning.
Loving Thy Neighbour as Thyself
Let's read the surrounding text from Deuteronomy 22:4-8...
Deuteronomy 22:4-8, “Thou shalt not see thy
brother's ass or his ox fall down by the way, and hide thyself from them:
thou shalt surely help him to lift them up again. The woman shall not wear
that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's
garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God. If a
bird's nest chance to be before thee in the way in any tree, or on the
ground, whether they be young ones, or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the
young, or upon the eggs, thou shalt not take the dam with the young: But
thou shalt in any wise let the dam go, and take the young to thee; that it
may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days. When thou
buildest a new house, then thou shalt make a battlement for thy roof, that
thou bring not blood upon thine house, if any man fall from thence.”
God is telling us how to treat others. All of these civil
laws are based upon the premise in Leviticus 19:18, “Thou shalt not avenge,
nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt
love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.” Notice in Deuteronomy
22:4 that God says to look out for your neighbour's possessions (in this
case livestock).
Then the Lord says women are not to wear men's clothing
(which would definitely include pants). Women who wear pants do not love
their neighbour, because they are selfishly causing men to struggle with
lust (and thus causing marriage problems for other women). The basis of all
the Scriptures, and also God's judgment of every individual in Heaven, will
be upon the basis of whether or not we loved God and our neighbour as our
self. Also, notice that God forbids men from wearing women's clothing. It is
wrong when Christian men wear dresses for church youth skits. God forbids
cross-dressing, even at church for a seemingly good reason.
Next, the Lord teaches us to respect all life, but not in the
kooky sense of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) or the
Hindu religion that worships cows. PETA elevates animals to human status,
lobbying in America's courts to give animals the same rights as humans. This
is insane! Animals are not redeemed, and do not have spirits. Animals were
created for man as food, clothing or a good hunting dog or pet, but nothing
more. Animals don't go to Heaven or Hell. I do believe there will be animals
in Heaven, because we read that Jesus will come back with His army, to
defeat the Beast, riding upon a horse (Revelation 19:19).
Deuteronomy 22:6-7 teaches not to recklessly destroy animal
life. I believe that a person's attitude toward helpless, innocent and
harmless animals and birds is a reflection upon the condition of their heart
toward God and man. The Lord cares about little animals. Proverb 12:10, “A
righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of
the wicked are cruel.” The opposite is also true, that is, an
unrighteous man doesn't care about animals. There was a horrible video that
went viral years ago on the internet, showing a U.S. Marine throwing a
little puppy to his death over a steep cliff. What a monster! Do you think a
male like that (he's certainly not a man) will make a good husband and
father? Someone who will hurt a harmless animal for fun is capable of any
evil.
The last item mentioned in Deuteronomy 22:8 says that if you
build a new home, you have a responsibility to put up a fence to ensure that
people don't fall off your roof. God is an ethical God, always considering
others. These Scriptures teach personal responsibility, which certainly
would include corporate (business) responsibility. We see very little of
this in American society nowadays. Ethics is doing the right thing. When
companies employ shady advertising which use attractive people, pleasant
jargon, big print, appealing sounds, vivid colors and enticing offers to
lure in customers; but then talk like fiendish thugs in the boring black and
white fine print which is barely visible, God sees that lack of love for
one's neighbour as thyself. It is deceptive advertising which preys upon the
weakness of the human psyche, manipulating people subconsciously to make
money.
This type of shady behavior practically defines the United
States today, from the chewing gum at the local store which contains
poisonous Phenylketonurics, the shoe leather chemical put in Subway
sandwiches for decades, the fluoride in our tap water, nearly every legal
contract signed in America, to The White House which is notorious for
deception, fraud and lying. This is not loving thy neighbour as thyself. The
hallmark quality of being a Christian whose right with God is caring
about others.
The Importance of Little Things
I've been securely saved (born-again) now in Christ Jesus for
nearly 35 years. One thing that I've learned about God is that little things
matter to Him. Most people only look at the big things, but God cares about
the little things. If you do the little things, the big things will take
care of themselves. Dr. Jack Hyles said that. A space shuttle is composed of
approximately 2,500,000 parts! (see below quote). If one part fails, like the
rubber O-ring seal did on the shuttle
Challenger in 1986, it's all over!
That's why I make such a fuss over the little changes
here-and-there to the Holy Bible. In fact, professor Gail Riplinger
identified 64,000 changes made in the New International Version (NIV)
as compared to the trustworthy King James Bible. Do you think removing the
word “begotten” from John 3:16 isn't as
deadly as a faulty O-ring on the space shuttle Challenger? There is
nothing more deadly than spiritual dangers, because you might spend eternity
in Hell if you get it wrong! That's why I make a big fuss over the Holy
Bible! Churches who don't expose the modern corrupt Bible versions are like
soldiers who don't care if their fellow soldiers on the battlefield only
have BB guns to defend themselves. That is not loving thy neighbour as
thyself!!!
Brother, I want a high-powered sniper rifle on the battlefield,
and if up close, a
Thompson
submachine gun to sweep the enemy lines! It is a shame that veteran
soldiers know the value of having a great gun, whereas the average pastor
has a lackadaisical attitude toward the Bible. Bless God, I'm going to
continue to expose the inferior weapons being sold to the churches these
days!!! You cannot defeat the Devil with a pea-shooter! Give me the
sawed-off King James Bible shotgun!!! I'll take the sharper than any
double-edged Sword of the King James Bible (Hebrews 4:12). Notice that
Hebrews 4:12 doesn't say that the Word of God is a double-edged sword;
but rather, is sharper than any two-edged sword; that is, the Holy Bible is
the premier weapon! There's not a weapon invented by mankind that can pierce
“to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit” like God's Word can.
Here are some amazing facts about a space shuttle...
The space shuttle itself
is an amazing piece of technology. The statistics are simply mind-blowing:
it's the most complex machine ever constructed with 2.5 million separate
parts and 230 miles of wiring. Its three main engines are together more
powerful than twelve Hoover Dams, and the pressure of their turbopumps could
send a column of liquid hydrogen 36 miles into the sky. The shuttle can lift
25,000 pounds into orbit, and in total has carried some three million pounds
of cargo and 600 people into space. It travels around the Earth at 17,500
miles per hour. Together, all five orbiters have logged enough miles to make
it out past Jupiter.

incredible things you didn't know about the Space Shuttle | DVICE Magazine
To say that God is incredibly amazing is the world's biggest
understatement. Did you know that your heart beats faster than once a
second? That's approximately 100,000 times a day! There are 86,400 seconds
in a day! If you exercise, your heart could easily beat 150,000 times in one
day! The average human heart beats 2.5 billion times in 70 years, and pumps
enough volume of blood to fill over three railroad tankers!!! There are an
estimated 7 billion people alive on earth. That's over 7,000,000,000
heartbeats that God keeps going per second! Each and every day, the world's
hearts beat accumulatively 700,000,000,000,000 times!!! That 700 trillion
times a day! God makes that all happen!!!!!!!
The Danger of a Little Sin, a Little Gossip
We don't hear enough these days about pride and humility.
Pride is at the root of all sin. Notice that the middle alphabetic letter of
the words “sin” and “pride” is “i.” Most people have “i” problems!!! The
Bible teaches that God hates a proud look (Proverbs 6:16-17). God hates
pride and arrogance (a feeling of being better than others). Proverb
8:13, “The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the
evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.” Only by pride does divorce
happen. Proverb 13:10, “Only by pride cometh contention: but with the
well advised is wisdom.” There's no such thing as a “no fault divorce,”
it's both your faults!
We're talking about little things. Pride and sin are like
water leaking from a dam, that is, it's easy to plug the leak when it is
small, but if you wait until the dam breaks loose, it's impossible to stop.
Our American society is saturated with sinful pride these days, and our
nation's fall will be swift and hard when it comes. Proverb 16:18, “Pride
goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” If you
are not humble before the Lord God of the King James Bible, then you are
proud in heart. Proverb 29:23, “A man's pride shall bring him low: but
honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.”
Only by pride do people gossip and throw rocks at others when
they sin. Don't ever talk about how big a sinner someone else is, because
YOU are equally as sinful in God's eyes (James 2:10; Romans 2:1). A sure
sign of being sinfully proud is when you talk about the sins of OTHERS.
Don't criticize others because they sin differently than you do. James
3:5, “Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great
things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!” God
cares about the words from our tongue. Psalms 139:4, “For there is not a
word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.”
When the season of sin is over, there's always a famine! I
heard an excellent sermon recently from October 2014 by Pastor John
Wilkerson titled, “The
Prodigal Son” (here's
the MP3). I like what Dr. Wilkerson said in the preceding sermon,
“You're not going to sow your wild oats and pray for crop failure!”
God is a Contrarian
I recently heard Pastor Texe Marrs (I love Texe) say that God
is a Contrarian. Yes, that is very true. That means God usually looks at
things completely the opposite than we do as humans. The Bible is packed
full of examples. If you abide in the Scriptures as Jesus commanded in John
15:1-5, then you will become a Contrarian in your thinking too as a
Christian. Of course, if you're not saved you'll never be able to understand
the truths of God's Word, for they are spiritually discerned (1st
Corinthians 2:14).
God thinks very differently than most people do. The
following passage of Scripture is one such example, which teaches that many
bad people will enter into Heaven, while good people burn in the Lake of
Fire for eternity...
Matthew 21:28-31, “But what think ye? A certain
man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in
my vineyard. He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented,
and went. And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and
said, I go, sir: and went not. Whether of them twain did the will of his
father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I
say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God
before you.”
Hence, salvation is not doing your best, it is
having Christ's best put to your account through
receiving Him by faith.
Our churches today are filled with misled pastors and members
who think they are right with God merely because they are going through the
motions of meeting three times a week for devotions, fill 18 inches of pew,
sing “Holy, Holy, Holy,” put a few dollars into an offering plate and
abstain from immorality; but in reality, they make God vomit with their
counterfeit Bible versions, false plan of Lordship Salvation, empty alters,
seldom used baptistry, devotional type sermonettes, lack of hard-preaching,
replacing preaching with cantatas, women wearing pants, and lukewarm
straddling-the-fence attitude. In reality they are playing church!
The world is dying for something real. I want a pastor who
desires the truth, must have it, and must proclaim it! I don't mean to be
unkind, but the average fundamental Baptist today is woefully ignorant of
the truth. This is because most pastors don't think it's their concern. The
Bible tells us to be as wise as serpents, but as harmless as doves (Matthew
10:16). Well, you can't be wise if you're woefully ignorant of mainstream
events. I love preachers like
Pastor Danny Castle and Dr. Texe
Marrs, who preach against the Illuminati and New World Order. While the
average pastor is woefully ignorant of these things, their church teenagers
are steeped into the occult. Wake up! You cannot properly understand and
teach Bible prophecy today if you are ignorant of the
New World Order (MP3,
Unholy Alliance - an incredibly insightful crash course on the history
of the New World Order. *Please note in the preceding recommended MP3
presentation that I do not agree with their denial of a
Pretribulation Rapture).
God remembers the things we forget, and we forget the things
that God remembers. As Christians, we tend to remember our sins, but God has
forgotten them... Psalms 103:12, “As far as the east is from the west, so
far hath he removed our transgressions from us.” Yet, we tend to forget
God's promises, that He remembers... Psalms 105:8, “He hath remembered
his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand
generations.” God thinks very differently than man. Isaiah 55:8-9,
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith
the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways
higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
The insane world tries to figure God out, but they can't, so
they put God on trial and accuse Him. Others redefine God, attempting to
bring God down to their own human understanding. Instead of accepting the
Biblical truth that man is created in the image of God, they attempt to
recreate God in man's own image. Let God be God!
Hating Thyself by Hurting Others
Proverb 8:36, “But he that
sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love
death.” ... Proverb 15:32, “He that refuseth instruction
despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth
understanding.”
The Bible says that the man who sins against God wrongs his
own soul, and the person who hates wisdom loves death. The Bible teaches
that the fear of God is the start of wisdom. Proverb 9:10, “The fear of
the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is
understanding.” Psalms 36:1, “The transgression of the wicked saith within
my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.” So when we put
these Scriptures together, we conclude that those who live in open sin do
not fear God, they lack wisdom, and they're are playing with fire (death).
When someone intentionally hurts others in the short-run (this earthly
life); such as, the abortion industry, the booze cabal, casino gambling,
Hollywood movies, thieving Wall Street, Las Vegas (Sin City), hellivision,
the treasonous White House, and the Bible-corrupting gang, they are hurting
themselves in the long-run (eternity), loving death. Proverb 16:5, “Every
one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join
in hand, he shall not be unpunished.”
John 5:14, “Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and
said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse
thing come unto thee.” The implication of this verse is that the man
had been crippled because of an illness caused by sin. John 5:5 says the man
had been paralyzed for 38 years! Jesus miraculously healed him. The Lord
admonishes him not to continue in sin, or else something even worse happen
to him. Oh, how sin thrills and then it kills! Sin fascinates and then it
assassinates! My friend, all of Satan's apples have worms! Abstaining from
sin is indeed a yoke of wood, missing out on the world's
immoral fun; but the consequences of sin are a yoke of iron,
bringing troubles, risking earthly consequences, and guaranteeing the
judgment of God. Jeremiah 28:13, “Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus
saith the LORD; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for
them yokes of iron.”
The entire Hollywood movie crowd couldn't care less about the
destructive spiritual influence which they have on families, just so long as
they make money.
Pediatrician Exposes R-Rated “Ratings Creep” Into PG-13 Films
Desensitizing Parents/Kids Alike. Truly, the love of money is
the root of all evil (1st Timothy 6:10). Some companies are so rotten and
evil that they will knowingly hurt people if the anticipated penalties in
court pale in comparison to the windfall of profits. Company decisions are
often based upon projected profits, and not upon how many people will be
adversely affected by those decisions. This is heathendom!
Literally, there are ungodly people running pharmaceutical
companies, who couldn't care less about the hundreds-of-millions of dollars
in court civil rulings against them, because they are still making
tens-of-billions of dollars in financial profits!!! As a whole, America's
court system is as corrupt and unfair as can be. While individual Americans
are being sentenced to decades in prison for petty crimes like drug
possession, U.S. corporate CEO's don't spend a day in prison for cheating
and hurting millions of people!
The ARM (Adjustable Rate Mortgage) banking scandal should
have resulted in thousands of arrests, convictions and imprisonments; but
the Wall Street got away with it. Thankfully, they'll be held accountable by
God in eternity (Ecclesiastes 12:14; Romans 14:10-12; 1st Thessalonians 4:6;
Matthew 12:36; Matthew 7:1-5). No one ever gets away with anything wrong!!!
It may seem like they are getting away with it right now, but the Bible
warns that judgment day is coming for all men (Hebrews 9:27; Ecclesiastes
5:8; 8:12).
It is sin that separates man from God (Isaiah 59:1-2). The
average American is so messed-up that they sincerely think God should
continue blessing them regardless of their wickedness. Kindly, it's typical
in Hawaii for tourists to see slutty Hawaiian hula dancers shaking their
butts, people guzzling down booze, then hypocritically end the night by singing,
“God Bless
America!” Luke 6:35, “But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping
for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the
children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the
evil.” God sure is kind to unthankful and evil people.
Read the horrible things that the infamous singer,
Shakira, says about
God in her music. Shakira is God's enemy. I am sad about that. As you just
read in Luke 6:35, God is kind to unthankful and evil people, loving His
enemies. God leads by example, showing us how to treat our enemies, by
loving and being kind to them. Jesus healed ten lepers and only one came
back to thank Him (Luke 17:17). Should we expect more from those whom we
help? No, because Jesus taught that the servant is not greater than his Lord
(John 15:20). Proverb 11:17, “The merciful man doeth good to his own
soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.”
Love Means Caring About & Protecting Others
Many people discard the Old Testament as being outdated,
boring and non-applicable to today's living; but the opposite is absolutely
true. The Old Testament is 100% applicable, valid and pertinent to our lives
today. Romans 15:4, “For whatsoever things were written aforetime were
written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the
scriptures might have hope.” It's been accurately said that the Old
Testament is the New Testament concealed, and the New Testament is
the Old Testament revealed.
These are civil laws given to man by God. These teachings
reveal the loving heart of God, which teaches neighbours to look upon (with
concern) one another's needs, property, livestock, possessions, family, and
so forth, as they were our own. Our Lord did this Himself...
Philippians 2:1-5, “If there be therefore any
consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the
Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded,
having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done
through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other
better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but
every man also on the things of others. Let this mind be in you, which was
also in Christ Jesus.”
Jesus looked upon the needs, burdens, things and well-being
of others. How does this compare to the wicked beer companies today who sell
alcoholic beverages, looking out only for themselves, knowing that
hundreds-of-thousands of people each year are injured, killed and murdered
because of booze! What do they care, they're making filthy lucre! It's easy
to help destroy other people's lives when you don't have to face the
families of your victims.
How Does Your Child See You When You've Been Drinking Booze?
(for children monsters are real).
It is very interesting in Deuteronomy 22:4-8 that God
mentions these things together. First he says that we are responsible to
look out for our neighbour's property. Then he forbids cross-dressing! Then
he says to be considerate of a little bird if you are building something and
come across a nest with birds in it. Then God says you are responsible for
your neighbour if you build something and your neighbour gets hurt. These
things all deal with caring for others, whether it be caring for their
well-being, caring for their property, caring about the influence we have
upon them, or even just caring about God's creation. Matthew 12:36 teaches
that God is even going to hold men accountable on judgment day for their
idle words spoken here on earth.
It is human nature because of sin to become indifferent,
uncaring, cold, unaffected, withdrawn, oblivious and isolated; however, God
is holy, totally incapable of any of those things. It is easy for us as
humans not to care as we ought when we are tired, discouraged, frustrated,
bodily afflicted in pain and overwhelmed with life.
Do you see how awesome, precious, considerate and loving our
God truly is!!! The omnipotent God who spoke the universe into existence
didn't just make little birds for us to step on (let alone step on our
neighbour)! The Bible repeatedly teaches to love God (Mark 12:30), love
others (Leviticus 19:18), love one another (John 13:34), love our enemies
(Matthew 5:44) and love our self (Proverb 19:8). Yet, tragically, most
people love money. You cannot love God and money, it's one or the other
(Luke 16:13).
Nothing ever occurs to God. The Holy Spirit never says, “Uh
oh!” The Lord is omniscient, meaning
“all-knowing.” There is nothing that happens which God doesn't see. Hebrews
4:13, “Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight:
but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we
have to do.” There is not a thought that God doesn't monitor.
Proverb 24:12, “If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he
that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not
he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his
works?” Jesus said in Matthew 12:36, “But I say unto you, That every
idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day
of judgment.” God pays attention to little things.
The Lord recently laid a truth upon my heart which prompted
me to write an article titled, “Jesus
Taught 'THE GOLDEN RULE' in Matthew 7:12.” I got to thinking about
The Golden Rule, which is to treat others the way we want to be treated.
As I pondered this truth, I thought about all the satanic music videos that
the Illuminati (“the rulers of the darkness of this world,” Ephesians 6:12)
are inflicting upon teenagers these days, like Maroon 5's “ANIMALS,”
which promotes stalking, murder, lewdness, nudity, satanism, blood and gore,
psychotic behavior and unholiness. And they call Christians “nuts”? Brother,
it's OK to be a nut if you're screwed onto the right bolt! Maroon 5 are
pulling on the same rope as the Devil. I'm nuts about Jesus, and if that
makes me a nut to the world, then so be it!
These horrible and rotten role models which are corrupting
our teenagers nowadays don't love those teens. Love does not seek its own.
Love does not rejoice in doing wrong. Love thinketh no evil. According to
the Holy Bible, all of the music videos being pushed on teens these days are
not love. 1st Corinthians 13:4-6, “Charity suffereth long, and is
kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily
provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the
truth.” Do you think God approves of today's
lewd, nude and crude music videos? No way! Our youth are under satanic
attack, with the intention of destroying their lives, thus
weakening our
nation.
Teenagers today everywhere desperately need to know that they
are loved just as they are...
Teenager are you lonely, do you need
a Friend?
Take Jesus as your Savior, He will lead you to the end;
He'll be your guide, stand by your side,
Teenager, take Jesus Today!

Jesus Said You are Worth More Than Many Sparrows
My friend, please don't forget this precious truth from
Deuteronomy 22:6-7 about the little bird's nest. If you'll keep this in
mind, your life will forever be changed. I often think about this passage,
which reminds me how much God cares about me. If God cares about a little
bird, then how much more I know He cares for me. The shepherd boy who became
king, David, spent his youth gazing up at the stars during the night.
Psalms 8:3-5, “When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the
moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art
mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast
made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and
honour.”
Dr. Hyles: “If You Are Loving Because You Want
Someone To Be Loved, That Is Love!” (MP3)
Again, we read in Matthew 10:29-31, “Are not two sparrows
sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without
your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye
not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.” As you just
read, not one little bird can fall to the ground without God's permission.
Jesus encourages us that if God the Father is concerned about sparrows and
watches over them, then He is also concerned and watches over us, knowing
even the number of hairs upon our head.
That is a little thing. Some people would say that God needs
a life. You'd think that somebody as important as God would have better
things to do than monitoring the number of hairs on our head. That's the way
many people errantly think. Ah, but God cares about you and me that much!
God engraves our names upon His hand (Isaiah 49:16). He knows when we lay
down and rise up from our bed (Psalms 139:1-5). The Lord collects our tears
into His bottle (Psalms 56:8). God cares (1st Peter 5:7). God cares about
little things, even about a little bird's well-being.
Ephesians 2:10, “For we are his
workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus
unto good works,
which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.”
1st Corinthians 1:18, “For
the preaching of the cross is to them that
perish foolishness; but unto
us which are saved it is the power of God.”
Mark 1:15: “...repent
ye, and
believe the gospel.”
“Search
the scriptures;
for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify
of me.” —John
5:39
"In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not

destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power."

(MP3 by Dr. Jack Hyles)
(We ought to work even harder as we
see the end years of our life approaching)
“You show me a
person to whom Heaven becomes real, and this Book becomes real,
and God becomes real, and Hell becomes real, and salvation
becomes real, and I'll show you a person that will so much the
more serve God as he sees the day approaching!”
—Pastor Jack
Hyles, a quote from the awesome MP3 sermon titled, “So
Much The More As Ye See The Day Approaching.”
“The mark
of the child of God is that he loves everybody!”
(a quote from Pastor Jack
Hyles' classic MP3 sermon, “FORGIVENESS”)
